Yeah, I was super excited when I found the auction, then I scrolled down to disappointment. I don't know why they don't sell the whole kit in the first picture.

when I bought these, I got the headers, resonators & extension pipes with o2 sensor sockets...I had to buy the o2 extension harnesses seperate...the install wasnt too bad, although the passenger side bolts are a PITA to get to because of a cooling tube that runs down that side of the engine...I've noticed a considerable difference in throttle response & I love the sound...check my earlier posts for videos...the resonators look almost like high flow cats (yes officer, I have cats, look...lol)

Supposedly the build quality of the obx isn't that great. There's a pretty good thread in the v8 section comparing them to kooks, which is who they are trying to copy. Just passing the info.

[OOLIE]

Yeah I just read that. Plus without the HFC's I don't know if I will go that route. I do have to say the cars sound great with them so I don't blame people for getting them but I want the HFC's if I am going to do it. Back to BBK's and more money dang. LOL

[bmorecam]

actually you can buy the high flow cat seperate and I heard that solo can fit too. As far as the comparison between kook and obx quality the kook is a better quality but ARH is better than kook and BBK is better than doug thorley. There's no ending. Only thing that matter is that they all are either stainless or ceramic and have about the same gain as what a long tube are suppose to give you. They are all tested and dynoed, just look at the v8 guys.

[OOLIE]

Fair enough I will look into seperate HFC's before final decision

I personally thought these were pretty good...there are certain people & vendors on here bashing OBX, but everyone who has gotten them seems to be happy...yes, the quality isn't perfect, but they are by no means shoddy...as an example from other threads, the bends have some small "notches" for lack of a better term & aren't 100% baby butt smooth & the interior welds could have been smoothed a little bit nicer, but you get what you pay for...plus those kind of thing are only going to cost 3-5 HP & since I got them more for sound & I'm not a racer, 3-5 HP wasn't a deal breaker for me...& I do love the sound & the power increase though...I'm very happy with them & I'm curious to see more reviews from other V6ers of them

So... they are great for a driver, not so good if building a show car or trying to eek out every last bit of horsepower.

[cntryman77]

I think they'd be fine on a show car...the weld stuff is internal, & the bend stuff isn't noticeable unless you are right up on it...not all the bends have this either...I think mine had 3 out of 6 & it was only up on the bend by the flange & the greasing is on the underside where you can't even see it
